Previous to this patch there were some cases where line numbers for
errors were 0 (unknown). Now the compiler attempts to give a better
line number where possible, in some cases giving the line number of the
closest statement, and other cases the line number of the inner-most
scope of the error (eg the line number of the start of the function).
This helps to give good (and sometimes exact) line numbers for
ViperTypeError exceptions.
This patch also makes sure that the first compile error (eg SyntaxError)
that is encountered is reported (previously it was the last one that was
reported).
When looking to see if the REPL input needs to be continued on the next
line, don't look inside strings for unmatched ()[]{} ''' or """.
Addresses issue #1387.
ViperTypeError now includes filename and function name where the error
occurred. The line number is the line number of the start of the
function definition, which is the best that can be done without a lot
more work.
Partially addresses issue #1381.
The adapter class "TelnetToSerial" is used to access the Telnet
connection using the same API as with the serial connection. The
function pyboard.run-test() has been removed to made the module
generic and because this small test is no longer needed.
When looking for chars to indicate raw repl is active, look for the full
string of chars to improve reliability of entering raw repl correctly.
Previous to this patch there was the possibility that raw repl was
entered in a dirty state, where not all input chars from previous
invocation were drained.
This allows the DAC to use a user-specified Timer for the triggering
(instead of the default Timer(6)), while still supporting original
behaviour.
Addresses issues #1129 and #1388.
